The Meimans are an elderly. ailing couple. Naum is a 74yearold man. Inna is terminally ill with cancer. Their simple iequest is to live out what is left of their time together in the land that they chooseIsrael. The Meimans are of no use to the Soviet Government. yet officials continue to hold them captive in Moscow. Naum is tormented by the secret police and Inna remains waiting in pain. I strongly urge the Soviet Government to permit the Meimans to emigrate to Israel and to open the doors to freedom to all those who wait unwillingly. locked behind the Iron Curtain.
